Awesome artist but not well known. Liked this song and couldn't find a tab so I made one.
This is the Audiotree session version. He does a no capo version as well and its the
exact same chords.
Capo 6
The Bass line follows this pattern and you just pick the chords overtop
Am
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-----0-------------------0-------------------0--------3-----0------------0-|
E|-------------0--------3----------0---------3---------------------0-----3---|
The bass changes to follow the C chord. Anything in brackets is optional but it is in
the song.
C
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------(pick)-----(pick)-----(pick)----(pick)---------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------(0)--3---------------(0)--3---------------------------------|
E|--------3------------------3-----------------------------------------------|
(pick just means pick the top strings in the C chord)
The strumming pattern is pretty simple. Listen to the song to get it down.
Intro: AmC
Oh, I see a girl thats blue like the sea
Am
when i go to sleep you know that she sees me, too
C
yeah, just standing around like the popular kids
Am
hoping saint peter will let us in, too
F
"well," he says " if you value your life stay off the drugs
C
if you value the drugs stay off the map.
G
if you value maps you better travel, son.
FC(single strum) Am
if you dont want to travel then you better run"
ooh, yeah, mmm, oh
C
yeah, well I knew a king in his purple throne
Am
oh, and he had some trouble so he's all alone now
C
well I used to bring him little presents from time to time
Am
and hed sit me in his castle and hed pick my mind
F
he said, "if you value your heart, oh stay on the road.
C
if you value the road, oh stay on the top .
G
if you value the top, oh youre gonna suffer son.
FC(single strum) Am
and if you dont want to suffer, then you better run"
(Full strums)
C

Am

(Back to picking)
C
when anybody tries to tell him what to do
Am
he holds his breath until he turns blue
F
he says, "if you value your job, stay out of crime.
C
if you value the crime, stay out of doors.
G
if you value them doors you better lock em son.
FG
and if you dont want to lock em, you better buy a gun"
This part speeds up. Its the same Chords but just at a different tempo. Theres a few
riffs here. Theres no real
pattern I can distinguish. He just plays around with the high B and E strings on the
third fret with his pinkie.
He also throws in some bends on the B string.
The new bass riff comes to this.

Am

C
yeah, he said, "it must be gettin awful lonely tryin to save the world;
Am
just buy a collared shirt and try and fuck some girls."
F
he said, "if you value your limbs, stay in the game.
C
if you value the game, stay in the style.

if you value that style, youre a sinkin son.
